Dozens of pilot whales beach in mass stranding in Western Australia – video

At least 50 pilot whales have stranded on Cheynes beach, east of Albany in Western Australia. Almost twice that number of whales had been seen massing off the beach since Monday, according to the owner of Cheynes Beach Caravan Park, Allan Marsh. 'Probably about half an hour ago they beached themselves,' he said about 4pm local time on Tuesday. 'They're pretty alive still ... they're able to push a few out.'
